Some idiot on Slashdot says he really, really, really wants to rip OS X out of his Mac and run nothing but Linux. But he wants all his Mac apps to run just as smoothly and, um, they don’t. See here. Money quote: “What I would like is an equivalent: a software compatibility layer that will allow Linux to run Mac OS X apps at native performance. … Does such a project exist yet? If not, why not?”

Why not? Um, for the same reason there’s no team out there working on a way to put a Volkswagen engine into a Ferrari. Because it makes no friggin sense. Trust me, pal. Stick with OS X. You’re much better off. I should know. I wrote it myself.

Iulia and Natasha have set up a Facebook fan page. Search for "FSJ Blog" and click a button or something and then something happens and your life becomes just a tiny bit noisier and shittier than it already was. Seriously, I have no idea why we are doing this except that Iulia says the rule about social networking is that if something can be done, then everyone must do it. So now we have a Facebook page. Knock yourselves out.
